I should think what the United Kingdom tried to achieve by the Amalgamation of the then Northern and Southern Protectorate was a United States of Nigeria Where you have the Hausa/Fulani, Yorubas and Igbos live together under one Colony like you have Ireland, Scotland and England combine to have a United Kingdom.

What Britain didnt realise however should be that, While Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England share a lot of similarities in Culture, Religion, Social Political Orientations, That isnt the Case with Nigeria.

The Intent from the Colonial Masters might have been devoid of any Malice or Bias but as it stands today, its proven to be an experiment that has back fired, has not worked and will not Work.

Nigerians Must Re-Negotiate this Forced Union.

Nothing Shameful in divorce. If it is not working. It just isnt working.

The Dot in the Circle can decide to be independent of the Circle.

The Circle does not necessarily have to be responsible for the dot especially if the dot has come of age and decides for Independence.

A Union should not be by force.

A union must arise from mutual agreements, Fairness, Equity, Equality where no member of the union is disgruntled.

Under Estimating the Dot in a Circle could be catastrophic in the long run.

Nigeria can be renegotiated without blood let.

Let people of same culture, Traditions, Beliefs and Language aggregate themselves and live in Peace.

Beating drums of war does not orgor well for no party.

War is Expensive.
War is Hard.
War is difficult.

Instability, Poverty, Hunger, Disease, Famine are consequences of War still add on top of that Indemnity.

Instead of positioning for elections in 2023, A Referendum should be topic of discussion.

Doing the same thing over again and expecting a different result is definition of insanity.

We keep having elections every election circle and it keeps getting worse.

Nigeria has degenerated so badly not even a Credible and Successful Election can fix it not to talk of Our Crookish Politicians already rooting and scheming to Rig and Continue Business as usual.

Nigeria Can be Renegotiated.
